Monomethyl phthalate
Monomethyl phthalate is an orally active metabolite of phthalic acid. Monomethyl phthalate, as a urine biomarker after exposure to phthalate, can be used as a detection indicator for thyroid cancer and benign nodules. Monomethyl phthalate reduces the survival rate of young frogs. Monomethyl phthalate induces oxidative damage to red blood cells in rats[1][2][3].
